The Book Wor
The Bookworm is conducted for!
and in the interest of Back Moun-
tain Memorial Library.
By Florence Tremayne Crump
The Bookworm says, “A is for
Apple”, but that is in September.
From now until July 15, A stands
for Auction and Antiques. Things
are already coming into the Barn-
yard in Dallas to make up the
large assortment of the treasures
and the white elephants of the
whole territory. There are always
some things in the sale that many
people want to collect, and many
things which have been someones
hobby in this or a year long past,
so before we decide what we are
going to do this summer, let's take
a look at some hobbies.
Did you know that there is a
publication called ‘Hobbies, the
Magazine for Collectors” ? Perhaps
the people who planned the “Hobby
Show” held in the Dallas Town-
ship High School a few weeks ago,
found some ideas in this magazine,
or perhaps they just asked people
to bring in their pet projects for
others to share. However, they
planned, it worked out well. An
amazing number of different hob-
bies, covering many age groups,
were gathered in that one room.
In the wood working groups many
types from the very fine jig saw
carving to simple woodcraft done
in the school indicated great in-
terest in this type of craft. The
Back Mountain Memorial Library |
has many books on this sort of
work. There is the “Modern Hand-
ibook for Boys” by Bechdolt, “It’s
Fun to Make it Yourself” which
gives clear directions on how to
make anything from bookends to
birdhouses, with instructions on
how to paint or refinish old or new
wood. Then there is ‘Popular
Crafts for Boys” by Hamilton, “You
can Whittle and Carve” by Hellum,
which shows how easily anyone
may learn to carve small figures:
“Wood Carving as a Hobby” by
Faulkner has more ideas on the
same subject. Boys; there is an
interesting hobby for summer. Per-
haps some girls could carve fig-
ures too if they tried, or are boys
more clever at making designs.
“Magic as a Hobby” by Bruce
Elliott, shows new tricks for ama-
teur performers and ‘Card Tricks
Anyone Can Do” by Leemon shows
just how to put on a show with
just a pack of cards and a few
simple accessories.
The Back Mountain Memorial
Library has so many books of
special interest to girls—lots of
ideas of things to do through the
summer months, “Prizes and Pre-
sents Every Girl can Make” by
Hamilton, “Girls Treasury of Things
to Do” by Horowitz, and ‘‘Holiday
Cards for you to Make” by Ackley.
That last book sounds as if it would
be lots of fun. Oh, for the girls
who are starting to entertain
friends at card parties or little
suppers, there is the book, “How
to Make Paper Flowers and Party
Decorations’’, by Morgan. By study-
ing these ideas quite interesting
decorations could be worked out for
a small part of your allowance.
For the real collectors, (and
there were some very nice collec-
tions of china, glass and other
things in the Hobby Show) your
library has ‘The Book of Pottery
and Porcelain” by Coxe, ‘English
Pottery and Porcelain” by Sempill,
“American Pewter”, by Kerfoot,
“The Book of Old Silver” by Wyler,
“The Blue China Book’, by Camehl
and the ‘Collector's Manual” by
Hudson Moore.
There are still some people who
think collecting silly, but just wait
till some friend in England sends
a cup and saucer qr a cream and
sugar of fine old Worcester; or at
a sale in an old home they buy a
dull black vase with red figures on
it and later find they have a choice
piece of old Wedgewood. Then the
scoffer becomes a collector.
The hobby show also had some
fine needlework and quilts and
some rugs. For people who like
these things “The Good House-
keeping Needlecraft Encyclopedia”
by Carroll has exact directions on
how to do many types of knitting,
crochet work, tatting, drawn work,
cut work, quilting and neelepoint,
and so many more it would take
a whole page to list them. “The
Art of Hooked Rug Making” by
Batcheder will show you some in-
teresting patterns to try—if you
have any time this summer after
gardening.
And, speaking of gardening, both
indoors and out, there were some
nice exhibits at the hobby show.
Orchids make quite a hobby but
require too specialized treatment
for most people. African Violets
everyone can attempt and if you
read Helen Van Pelt Wilson's book,
“The African Violet” you will be
surprised to find how many kinds
there are; and how easy they are
to grow.

expensive hobby. In this book EIl- !

SAFETY VALVE...
Be re
Dragging myself out of bed Mon-
day morning, after a hectic and
sleepless night brought on by the!
incessant and relentless whistle of
the streamlined Diesel engine
doing double duty at night in Dal-
las—so that it may function more
profitably in the valley during the
day—I was amused and disgusted
to read in the morning paper the
Lehigh Valley Railroad’s eloquent:
argument against zoning in the
Back Mountain Area:
“We sincerely hope wou will pro-
vide in your zoning ordinance for
lands adjacent to the Lehigh Val-
ley Railroad to be classed as “In-
dustrial”, which would permit of
the establishment of such industries
in your community that do not
prove noxious or offensive by rea-
son of emission of odor, smoke or
noise. It has been the experience
of other communities that the
adoption of an ordinance too strin-
gent in its restrictions is undesir-
able and detrimental to the best
interests of the community.”
Our home is three or four blocks
from the railroad. What amazes
me is that the folks living along
Machell avenue, and Lake road—
both fine residential sections—have
not “blown their tops.”
Nobody ever gets rich in the
Back Mountain Area. But in the
past they have been able to enjoy
a good quiet night's sleep in good
fresh air with now and then a
whiff of apple blosoms. This more
than compensated for the higher
salaries, complete police protection,
well-lighted streets, sewage and
full-time fire companies available
in cities.
My only hope is that the folks
who oppose zoning and yearn for
the noise and bustle that seems
to go with unrestricted industrial
expansion, will wake up some
morning and find a Diesel engine
puffing in their back yards—there
is nothing like it to make you
want to move back to the peace
and quiet of the city.

eanor St.George has pictures of
a great many dolls in famous
collections from every time, and
country. She has dolls of Parian,
bisque, wax, china, cloth, kid and
even Hitty, the wooden doll of
Rachel Field's story. After reading
this book we will all look upon
old dolls as. possible collectors’
items.
These books show many pictures
of the various articles that any col-
lector would prize. They also show
markings that identify old china,
pottery or silver and a study of
them will help any collector to tell
the antiques from the moderns.
We can all find hobbies to en-
joy and we may decide which one
suits us best by reading these
books which are all in the Back
Mountain Memorial Library. Then,
when we go to the Auction Sale,
Dolls of Yesterday” is a fascinating | we may start a collection which
book on what may become a very | some day may bring renown to
Dallas. Who knows?
